Orbi RBR40 integration with Google Assistant

Hi, I have an Orbi RBR40 with 2 satellites Firmware shows as 2.0.0.56 with no update available. I have just set up my Netgear account to work with Google assistant and whilst I can "talk to netgear"...

Managed to sort this out, slightly embarrassing really, there is remote management which I had enabled but there is also remote access which appears to be on the Genie app only. Once that was turned on Google and Netgear play nicely together! Thanks for all help and advice.

Are you able to remote manage the Orbi using Orbi app on 3/4G ?
I assume you have enabled remote management.
